| 88:1 | | Has there come to thee the story of the overwhelming | | 88:2 | | Faces on that day shall be humble | | 88:3 | | labouring, toiling, | | 88:4 | | shall broil upon a burning fire | | 88:5 | | shall be given to drink from a boiling spring | | 88:6 | | no food shall they have save from the foul thorn | | 88:7 | | which shall not fatten nor avail against hunger | | 88:8 | | Faces on that day shall be comfortable | | 88:9 | | content with their past endeavours, | | 88:10 | | in a lofty garde | | 88:11 | | wherein they shall hear no foolish word | | 88:12 | | wherein is a flowing fountain | | 88:13 | | wherein are couches raised on high | | 88:14 | | and goblets set down | | 88:15 | | and cushions arranged | | 88:16 | | and carpets spread | | 88:17 | | Do they not look then at the camel how she is created | | 88:18 | | And at the heaven how it is reared | | 88:19 | | And at the mountains how they are set up | | 88:20 | | And at the earth how it is spread out | | 88:21 | | But remind: thou art only one to remind | | 88:22 | | thou art not in authority over them | | 88:23 | | except such as turns his back and misbelieves | | 88:24 | | for him will God torment with the greatest torment | | 88:25 | | Verily, unto us is their return | | 88:26 | | and, verily, for us is their account |
